Old Mustang GT vs new Lexus IS500 (a battle of V8s)

I caught this video through HotCars where an older V8 Mustang GT performs with a new V8 Lexus IS500. And while that honestly doesn't surprise me, for some reason it settled into my headspace this morning & kept circling around. First off - I liked the video. I...

French government having to battle Chinese EVs

This topic is important, because it foreshadows what could soon be happening in America if we don’t start wising-up. Because similar to the United States government, the French government has been giving $5,000 incentives for customers to purchase a new electric...

Fixed annoying leak in the Porsche 944 for $5

When it rained, water would leak in the passenger side of the Porsche 944. Who would've thought a $5 can of Flex Seal would actually fix it? NOPE, this is not a paid advertisement... just some good ol' redneck engineering lol. But hey, if it works it works....

UAW vs CEOs (strike strike strike)

2024 Ford F-150 gets refreshed

For 2024, the Ford F-150 gets a nice facelift & a yuppie-but-cool swiss army knife tailgate option. Buuuut as you can expect, Ford is cramming even more nonsensical tech into the refreshed F-150 & calling it ‘progress’. Is it though? Or is it just more...

By: Yousef Alvi and Jonathan Wooley No doubt - the Nissan Juke Nismo RS is an odd little crossover. You either can’t understand for the life of you why Nissan made it… or you can’t understand why you kind of want it. Or both. We can tell you after driving the Nismo...
